Cameroonian mother Beatrice Tchangon mourns her son Brice Yondou, who left for Russia seeking work but was recruited into the army. With no military experience and only four days of training, he was sent to fight in Ukraine. He later went missing in the Kursk region. His story reflects a growing trend of young Cameroonians lured by promises of high pay to join Russia’s war, often without full understanding or support.
